The real question about Quebec's future

I recently wrote a Facebook post on Canada's demographic issue, mentioning the decline in the Canadian population following recent immigration restrictions and emphasizing the need to restore the importance of the family in order for society to be viable. I was surprised to see more than 1,000 likes, just under 1,000 comments, and some 150 shares.

You can read wonderful comments, such as this one:

I grew up in a family of 10 children with modest incomes, and it was possible to find housing as long as we were willing to share rooms with three people and roll up our sleeves to build and maintain our house and vegetable garden with our own hands.

A small income from renting out the upstairs also helped us make ends meet each month.

The savings generated by everyone's work enabled us to attend university, financed by student loans.

We had no car, no dishwasher — in short, no luxuries. Living modestly allowed us to achieve our goals of improving our living conditions with a minimum of sacrifice.

It's possible, but you have to prioritize the right things...

Admittedly, a significant proportion of the reactions expressed disagreement with the proposal in this publication, with less than a quarter of the “likes” consisting of “laughs,” as if there were something funny about the situation – but that's normal, even the most beautiful monuments, which certainly do not include the humble publication mentioned above, are not spared by these birds that leave a trace of their passage...

All this to say: the demographic issue arouses a lot of passion. Why? Because it is one of the main factors that determine the future of a people, and because, as long as people still feel attached to their nation, they cannot remain indifferent to it. Others, apatride in the heart, will see no problem with society literally degenerating and will laugh at this dismal spectacle (all that's missing is for them to play the lyre...).

Fortunately, in Quebec, a large number of people are still attached to their identity and will view with concern the replacement of society by mass immigration or its gradual decline. In both cases, Quebecers are not having enough children. And it must be said that if Quebecers had maintained the fertility rate we had on the eve of the “Quiet Revolution” (which was more like collective suicide than anything else), we would now have 20 million inhabitants.

We are entering an election year in Quebec, and it appears that the leader of the Parti Québécois, Paul St-Pierre Plamondon, wants to bring Quebec to a third referendum on Quebec independence. At the very least, this is an issue that will clearly take center stage throughout the year, both because of its supporters and its opponents.

But whether you are for or against such a project, the real issue, which risks being overshadowed by the referendum question, is that of demographics: if we don't have children, what is the point of staying in Canada or leaving it? The heritage we carry with us risks dying with us, because it can only be well passed on through the family, and if we no longer have families, we will have no one to pass it on to.

I am aware of the many obstacles that stand in the way of achieving this goal: the cost of rent and housing, inflation, education (or the challenge of raising children outside the monopoly of government education). Everything must be done to remove these obstacles.

The issue of family must be given greater prominence now more than ever, by “family,” I mean the real family, the one that allowed us to build Quebec, it must be encouraged, and we must also restore the spirit of sacrifice so well expressed in the comment quoted above. However, today's society is imbued with a spirit of selfishness and consumerism that is summed up in the sinister slogan “my body, my choice.” The two spirits are absolute antagonists, and the fate of Quebec depends on the outcome of this battle.

For my part, I was raised in a large family and we weren't exactly rich. Yes, we also slept two or even three to a room — but that's nothing, because family is the greatest reward for sacrifice.

For Life,
Augustin Hamilton

A year full of challenges and a new year full of promise

Here we are at the end of 2025, a year full of events and trials, good news and bad news. We have witnessed many advances in the culture of death this year, but also several victories for the culture of life. In Quebec, in particular, we see several bills threatening faith and life. However, in Quebec itself, we also see the pro-life movement growing stronger, promising even bolder actions for the coming year, 2026.

Below are some of our articles from the year that is coming to an end, recounting several significant events and actions.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your support.
May you have a happy and holy year 2026.

On Quebec's Proposed Constitution: A Grave Step Backwards for Life and Memory
On October 9, 2025, the Legault government tabled a bill aiming to provide Quebec with its own constitution. Among the so-called “foundational principles” of this constitution is the “freedom of women to obtain an abortion.” Campagne Québec-Vie strongly denounces the inclusion of such a principle, which consecrates the deliberate elimination of an unborn human being as part of Quebec’s foundational identity.

The Quebec City March for Life despite the obstacles
This year, once again, we held the Quebec City March for Life despite all the obstacles that were thrown in our path and despite the rain.

Reflections on the 2025 March for Life in Quebec City
We are often reminded that we live under a so-called "liberal" regime, that is, a system founded upon "fundamental freedoms": freedom of religion, assembly, and expression. In Quebec, this liberalism is supposed to be protected by the Quebec Charter of Human Rights and Freedoms, adopted 50 years ago. Whether or not we agree with all its principles, in theory, we should be living under this rule of law.

Quebec would have 20 million inhabitants today if it had maintained its fertility rate of the 1950s
Without the drop in the fertility rate since the 1960s, Quebec's population would be more than double its current size. The decline in the birth rate since the Quiet Revolution has had a major impact on the province's demographic growth.

Has Quebec passed the million-abortion mark since 1970?
In 1969, abortion was decriminalised in Canada and, that same year, Henry Morgentaler opened an abortion clinic in Montreal, marking the beginning of a barbaric and murderous era in Quebec. Since then, the number of abortions has risen significantly. According to available data, nearly a million abortions have been performed in Quebec over the years!

Practicing Catholic Mark Carney betrays his faith by defending abortion
After attending Catholic Mass, Prime Minister Mark Carney was asked by a reporter if he “explicitly support[s] a woman’s right to choose?” In the lead up to the question, the reporter had observed that Mr. Carney was a “practicing Catholic who went to Church” earlier in the morning.

First birthday for the twins of a mother we helped
In 2024, we were blessed to help between four and five women carry their child to term. Now in 2025, they are celebrating the one-year anniversary of these children. I’ve been invited to two birthday parties. Two of the women we've helped gave birth to twins, one set is pictured below.

The fight for life must be fought on several fronts

The year 2025 has been a busy one, with many battles beginning that herald just as many challenges for the year ahead. Bill 9 is one of the fronts on which we are focusing our efforts. This bill on “strengthening secularism,” introduced in the Quebec National Assembly on November 27th, 2025, threatens the pro-life activism we are currently carrying out in the public square, such as 40 Days for Life, Vigil 365, and the Life Chain, where prayer plays an important role.

We are therefore fighting this secularization of society, not only to defend our rights, but to defend there the place of God and for the salvation of this very society, which is clearly dying from a lack of faith.

To carry out this fight, we have launched a fundraising campaign with a goal of $25,000. Thanks to the generosity of our donors, we have been able to raise $20,115. Thank you very much if you have already donated. However, we are still $4,885 short of our goal. Will you help us reach it?

I'm donating today >>

There is also Bill 1 on the Quebec constitution, tabled on October 9th, which would enshrine the “freedom to have an abortion” and secularism in Quebec's proposed constitution, as well as the inclusion of euthanasia in Quebec's Charter of Human Rights and Freedoms, three elements to which we are opposed on principle and which we are resolutely fighting against.

It is strange to note that feminist groups have decided to fight against the inclusion of abortion in Quebec's constitution, because this, by some mysterious magic, would jeopardize the “right” to abortion. If they manage to make the Legault government back down, so much the better — we won't complain. (In the meantime, it's hilarious to watch!...)

Bill C-9, introduced in the Canadian Parliament on September 19, 2025, in addition to expanding the scope of the “hate speech” law, could be amended to include an amendment from the Bloc Québécois repealing the religious exception to said “hate speech.” According to this exception in the Criminal Code, a person expressing a religious opinion in good faith but which appears to incite hatred against a group could not be convicted.

One might argue that Christians do not need such an exception, but the courts have already abused the hate law, even despite the exception. Take the case of Christian activist Bill Whacott, who was convicted of “hate speech” for calling on homosexuals to repent. Not only did the court reject the distinction between sin and sinner, but it also saw hate speech where there was none and rejected Mr. Whatcott's good faith.

Proof that it is already possible to label proposals that some people dislike as “hate speech,” as the LGBT movement often does when it is criticized. But this would be even worse with the quasi-judicial bodies that C-9 intends to create, which will be held to a lower standard of rigor than ordinary courts and will apply the civil standard of preponderance of probability rather than the criminal standard in a case that nevertheless falls under the Criminal Code.

Other challenges lie ahead, such as organizing the next March for Life in Quebec City, despite the hostility (and hatred!) of pro-abortionists associated with Antifa. Or organizing our first Festi-Vie. All of this requires a considerable investment, and we invite you to give generously to cover the costs of such events.

We are making progress in spreading our message, of course through our emails, which we now send to 13,788 addresses (in French) and 13,511 (in English). Last year, at the same date, we sent 7,319 emails in French and 7,402 emails in English.

We are also making progress on social media, particularly Facebook. Following a change in approach that is better suited to the Facebook audience and algorithms (or somewhere in between), we have seen rapid growth, as shown in the following graph.


The graph in the center shows the “views” statistics.

The graph shows that during this 90-day period, we began to see a jump in the distribution of our content toward the end of September, around the time we launched our new approach. Even the “floor” of the last few days, on either side of the dizzying peak of over 400,000 “views,” is between 20k and 30k, which is significantly higher than the 5k in September before the start of this upheaval.

What does this mean in concrete terms? Firstly, that the debate is not dead, as pro-abortionists like to say, and secondly, that the 144k or so interactions contain, as you might have guessed, a lot of controversy (including comments from pro-abortionists who say that the debate is over, but who paradoxically prove by commenting on our posts that this is not the case). Furthermore, the fact that pro-lifers are publicly displaying their convictions encourages others to do the same, and this in an atmosphere that is not particularly favorable to pro-life discourse.

These results are the fruit of the joint efforts of Georges Buscemi and myself. We plan to improve these results by producing videos on a more regular basis. To do this, will you help us financially?

A $120,000 government study… about us?

Every so often in the life of an organization, something happens that reveals—far more clearly than we ever could—whether the mission is gaining ground.

This week, Quebec Life Coalition (QLC) lived such a moment.

On December 9, the Fédération Québécoise pour le Planning des Naissances (FPQN -- essentially Planned Parenthood Quebec) released a 114-page, government-funded analysis of the pro-life movement in Quebec, titled:

"Quand le consensus vacille" — When the consensus wavers. And by "consensus" they mean the so-called pro-abortion consensus in Quebec.

When I saw the title, I knew we were in for something remarkable.

When I scanned the report, I realized: this is perhaps the single most significant external validation of QLC's effectiveness since our founding.

I want to share the contents of this report with you, because it is support from people like you that made these results possible.

As we take in what this report reveals, we are in the midst of our December fundraiser: we need to raise $11,569 in the next 12 days to meet our $25,000 objective.  If you’ve already given, thank you. If not, please consider giving today.

A six-figure study… about us?

Based on comparable provincial research budgets, a report of this scope, methodology, and length would cost the government between $120,000 and $140,000 to produce.

Think about that.

A major publicly funded project—interviews, field observations, focus groups, digital analysis, community mapping—conducted not on the health care system, not on education, not on public safety…

…but on Quebec Life Coalition and the Quebec pro-life movement.

Why would the government spend that much?

Because, as the authors themselves admit:

Something is shifting in Quebec. The consensus is wavering.

And QLC is at the center of that shift.

This kind of scrutiny doesn’t happen to organizations that are irrelevant. It happens when an entrenched establishment begins to feel the ground move beneath its feet. Help us continue spreading a Culture of Life in Quebec with even greater resolve. Please give today.

Something great just happened

Not long ago, we wrote to you about the shocking “Constitution of Quebec” bill tabled by Justice Minister Simon Jolin-Barrette — a bill that wishes to entrench abortion, euthanasia and aggressive secularism at the constitutional level in Quebec.

We asked you to urgently write or call your MNA.
And 700 of you have done so already — thank you!

If you haven’t yet taken action, you can still do so here:
👉 Write or call your MNA now.

You may also heard from us about the strange panic inside the pro-abortion movement: 

They are afraid that if abortion is named a “constitutional right,” we pro-lifers will finally have a “target” we can knock down.

Imagine that — they admit that the moment abortion is written down in law, its weakness becomes visible.

They seem to have all the power in Quebec today. The mainstream media. The universities. The political class. Yet they are not confident. They are afraid.

And Scripture tells us why:

“The wicked flee though no one pursues, but the righteous are bold as a lion.”
— Proverbs 28:1

“There is no peace,” says the Lord, “for the wicked.”
— Isaiah 48:22

Those who cling to the killing of children can never feel safe

Saint Paul reminds us:

“Our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places.”
— Ephesians 6:12

And that battle is shifting — rapidly.

An unexpected mediatic visibility!

"In a response to Mr. Buscemi, the minister stated on Patrick Masbourian’s broadcast that 'Quebecers do not want to be intimidated' by anti-abortion groups," reads Le Devoir.

What powerful threat could the president of Qubec Life Coalition have brandished over the “right” to abortion for Minister Simon Jolin-Barrette to raise his honourable person against such an imminent danger?

When questioned by a Le Devoir journalist about his perspective on the possible constitutionalization of abortion, Mr. Buscemi acknowledged that such a law would represent a concrete objective to fight against:

“The only thing is that it adds something concrete, a kind of target to take down, yes,” he said in an interview with Le Devoir. Mr. Buscemi, who compares abortions to “murders,” claims that such an addition to the law “would certainly be another rallying point.”


Georges Buscemi responding in an interview that abortion in the constitution could constitute a concrete target.

That was all it took to fuel feminists’ fears and give them the confirmation they were looking for that constitutionalizing abortion is a bad idea. Strikingly, pro-abortion groups oppose this project, saying it would paradoxically open a breach in the so-called “right.” “It could give us ammunition,” they say, because “we could then challenge this provision in court, creating a target where there was none,” according to 98.5.

Simon Jolin-Barrette, for his part, argues that it is precisely the courts in their current state that represent a danger, not after the constitutionalization of abortion, reports La Presse:

“In his view, courts could very well change their minds and invalidate decisions that currently confirm the right to terminate a pregnancy, hence the need to affirm the State’s obligation to act.”

But, as Mr. Buscemi pointed out, what judge would be willing to rule in our favor (whether there is a constitution or not)? According to Le Devoir:

“Mr. Buscemi, for his part, denies preparing a legal challenge. ‘It’s not like we’re rubbing our hands waiting for abortion to be, like, canonized, made a right enshrined […] in the Constitution,’ he assures. And, anyway, ‘what judge would be receptive to our arguments in 2025?’ he asks.”

This internal struggle among pro-abortion advocates is most peculiar; one would think that enshrining abortion in the constitution would make the practice even more invicible.

But this is where we see that "Claiming to be wise, they became fool" (Romans 1:22). Truly, it seems as though they flee at "the sound of a shaken leaf" (Leviticus 26:36), or tremble "with sudden terror, where there is no cause for terro" (Psalm 53:6).

Who knows what will come out of this hysterical frenzy where they tear each other apart?

And what about our fight for the unborn child?

You see, whether abortion enters the constitution or not, our fight will remain more or less the same: instead of denouncing a state of affairs where the unborn child is protected by no law, we will denounce a state of affairs where the killing of unborn children is encouraged by law.

What is positive about all this media-political agitation is that abortion is being talked about and that we are being publicized. The fact that the media mention us and that a minister must publicly comment on us increases the reach of our voice.

We work tirelessly so that the rights of unborn children are one day recognized and strive to change the culture in Quebec for the long term. For this, we need your help, both active and financial.

Click here to donate to our fundraising campaign.

And our efforts are bearing fruit! 700 people responded to our call to contact their MP to ask for the withdrawal of the project to enshrine abortion in the constitution.

Thanks to your help, our presence continues to grow. Four years ago, we barely had 2 or 3 Life Chains; this year we had about thirty!

Just three years ago, the Quebec March for Life didn’t even exist; thanks to your help, we held our second consecutive march — events that certainly did not go unnoticed!

Four years ago, we might have sent 500 emails outside Quebec; now, we send thousands of emails weekly beyond our borders.

Likewise, just a few months ago, our presence on social media was rather modest. In only three months, we have experienced explosive growth: 2,000 new followers and 3 million views. Hundreds of comments stretch dizzyingly beneath our posts. As a moderator, I see many people defending unborn children and the family with unexpected strength and inspiration.

I tell you, your participation is precious to us, and we invite you to demonstrate (much to some people’s dismay) that the debate on abortion is not over.

I would also ask you to kindly help us financially in our fundraising campaign to continue this essential fight. Unlike all these pro-abortion organizations, we depend entirely on your donations. Our goal is $25,000; we have raised $5,846 so far.

Many thanks for your generosity,

For Life,

They’re scared … and they should be

These days in Quebec, pro-abortion activists are engaged in a weird debate about whether they should enshrine abortion in a recently tabled Quebec constitution bill or, on the other hand, “let sleeping dogs lie” and just keep things as they are. 

A recent article in Quebec paper Le Devoir for which I was interviewed confirms this fact. So did the CBC, CTV and Montreal Gazette interviews I participated in.

As strange as this might sound, most pro-abortion activists in Quebec are worried that enshrining abortion in any future Quebec constitution will serve as a rallying point for us pro-lifers — that it would give us a “target” to aim at, a cause to rally around. Talk about us pro-lifers living in their heads rent-free!

One particular activist, Véronique Pronovost of the Université du Québec à Montréal, who seems to spend a lot of time reading everything we write (hello Véronique!), notices how crafty we pro-lifers at Quebec Life Coalition and elsewhere are at seizing on cultural and political events to further our cause. She worries that enshrining abortion in Quebec would motivate pro-lifers across Canada to further concentrate their pro-life giving in Quebec.

And you know what — she’s right! Because we at Quebec Life Coalition have indeed made this point, and generous people from Quebec and across Canada have indeed answered — and on behalf of the unborn across Canada and Quebec, we’re so grateful for it!

Our most significant fundraiser of the year is officially underway. A gift today sends a clear message to activists like Véronique Pronovost that pro-lifers across Quebec — and across the rest of Canada — are uniting to transform hearts and defend life in la Belle Province. We must raise $25,000 within just 3 weeks. Your support right now will help maintain this momentum and push our mission forward.

They want to erase Christ from Quebec — let's resist

In Quebec, we are experiencing a veritable barrage of attacks against faith, family, and life.

Although the Quebec nation had already begun to deny its own foundations during the so-called Quiet Revolution, a new wave of apostasy began in earnest with Bill 21 (June 16, 2019), the famous “state secularism” law.

Behind the mask of supposed neutrality now hides an assumed state atheism, which cuts Quebec off from its Christian roots.

Then, last December, came a direct attack on public prayer — a threat that we immediately opposed with an initial petition.

In August, it was the turn of the Pelchat-Rousseau report, a veritable roadmap for government atheism: pressure on parishes, religious organizations, charities... the obligation to “secularize” or lose their tax privileges, but also a new blow to parental authority in education.

Then came another blow — and not just any blow: draft bill no. 1, known as the “Quebec Constitution.”

There has been little mention of it in the media... and nevertheless!

This text establishes abortion, euthanasia, and secularism as the founding principles of the Quebec nation (see here).


Abortion, euthanasia, and secularism, enshrined in Bill 1, are the ills that are killing Quebec.

Together, we responded with:

And now, the news has just broken this Thursday, November 27, that a bill will be introduced to “strengthen secularism” — that is, to strengthen state atheism and further attack public prayer.

In the face of this wave of attacks, our response remains the same:
“Jesus saves Quebec!”

Like Noah in the ark, we take refuge in the Cross.
And clinging to this plank of salvation, we will pass through the storm.
"And where sin abounded, grace did more abound." (Rom 5:20)

And the grace indeed overabounds:
Next week begins in the city of Quebec a large Christian and pro-life gathering for three days.
I beg you: come witness to Christ at the heart of a Quebec that its elites want to uproot.

Great Gathering "LORD JESUS, SAVE QUEBEC!"

December 4, 5, 6 (Quebec City)
• 1 PM – 4 PM: Av. Honoré-Mercier, in front of the Parliament
• 6:30 PM – 9:30 PM: Place d'Youville, near the Saint-Jean gates
Full invitation here (not available in English)

While they want to erase Christ from the hearts and public spaces...
We will do the opposite.
We will stand tall.
Proud of our Savior, proud of His commandments of love, proud of the truth.

And to make this testimony visible, our new QLC store is now online (Items in English available soon):

Clothes and accessories to publicly proclaim your faith — to the great displeasure of secularists who dream of silencing us.

Discover it here: Quebec Life Coalition online store

May God bless us and give us the strength to stand for Him.

Stand up for life

For weeks, all of Quebec has been talking about Bill 2 on physician salaries. But while the population is divided on this issue, an even more fundamental bill is quietly making its way through the legislative process: Bill 1, known as the “Quebec Constitution.”

This seriously flawed bill seeks to establish the right to kill an unborn child as a “fundamental freedom.” Such an act is not only a grave injustice — the killing of an innocent human being — but also a direct threat to the demographic survival of a people who once had families of 12 or 15 children and who today struggle to reach a rate of 1.33 children per woman.

The bill also enshrines a so-called right to euthanasia, giving doctors the power to cause the death of vulnerable people as part of their “medical” function. Medicine thus becomes a promoter of death, serving a utilitarian view of human beings: we are worthless if we no longer produce anything.

Finally, the proposed Constitution reaffirms a “secular Quebec” that denies the Christian heritage that has shaped our collective identity. Under the guise of neutrality, state atheism—clearly outlined in the recent Pelchat-Rousseau report—is positioning itself to abolish all funding for religious schools, stifle parishes, and impose on Christian families an educational environment hostile to their faith.

In the face of this offensive, you responded: nearly 600 messages were sent to members of Congress via our platform. If you haven't already done so, we invite you to do the same:

https://en.cqv.qc.ca/contact_your_quebec_representative_today

And above all, since the government has opened a public consultation, we strongly encourage you to fill out the official form:

https://www.assnat.qc.ca/en/travaux-parlementaires/commentaire.html?id=54223&type=Mandat

Your vigilance is already bearing fruit. In Ottawa, thanks to citizen mobilization, recommendations 429 and 430 — which would have stripped religious and pro-life organizations of their charitable status — were not included in the Carney budget. This is a victory for Christianity in Canada.

Late-term abortion

We are told that late-term abortion is “rare” and that it is only performed for “medical reasons.” But what is the reality?

The Canadian pro-life group Right Now conducted an undercover investigation at four abortion clinics to see if it was possible to obtain an abortion without any reason after 20 weeks of pregnancy.

In one of the videos from the investigation, the investigator, who is 21 weeks pregnant, goes to the Sainte-Catherine CLSC in Montreal. There, she is told that she has two weeks to have a “regular” abortion. After that, the procedure would involve injecting the "fetus" with a substance to kill it, then checking at the CLSC that it is indeed dead before going to the hospital to induce labor and give birth to a dead “fetus.”

No reason was asked for... none, at a stage when we can make premature babies live with appropriate care.

Alberta protects children and parental rights

On Tuesday, the Alberta government introduced a bill to add the notwithstanding clause to three laws concerning transgenderism in order to protect them from legal challenges.

These laws prohibit gender transition surgeries and treatments for minors under the age of 16, require parents to be notified of changes to their child's first or last name at school, also make sex education and the teaching of gender identity and sexual orientation to children conditional on parental permission, and prohibit men claiming to be women from participating in women's competitions.

Alberta's move to protect children and parental rights is to be commended and encouraged.

Censorship of Christian thought

American Christian singer Sean Feucht is suing the City of Quebec for canceling his concert at ExpoCité. The cancellation of his booking came amid a campaign of criticism denouncing the singer's pro-life, nationalist, and Christian views. This case, which raises the question of the acceptability of Christian and pro-life discourse in the public sphere, is one to watch closely.

FestiVie 2026: a new chapter for Quebec

April 2026 will see the first edition of FestiVie, organized by QLC, an event set to become the major annual gathering for pro-life and pro-family youth in Quebec.

Why FestiVie? Because we are living in a pivotal moment. The assassination of the prominent American pro-life activist Charlie Kirk, whose courageous testimony touched so many lives, reminds us of the fragility of our mission and the urgency of responding to it with as much faith as determination. His death calls each of us to take up the torch where God has placed us.

For QLC, that place is Quebec — especially its CEGEPs and universities, where so many young people hear nothing but pro-abortion and pro-LGBT slogans.

Hence our plan:

  1. A campus tour (September-March), featuring lectures, workshops, and the creation of sustainable student clubs.
  2. FestiVie (April), a large one or two-day gathering of students, families, speakers, artists, and inspiring witnesses.
  3. Marches for Life (May), in Ottawa and Quebec City, highlighted and supported by the energy of the young people we meet throughout the year.

This is an ambitious project. But thanks to you, it is taking shape.

Marches for Life 2026: Being the voice of the voiceless

We invite you to save these dates now:

  • May 14th: National March for Life in Ottawa
  • May 30th: March for Life – Quebec City

These marches are essential. They serve as a public reminder that more than 100,000 children are aborted each year in Canada — including 20,000 in Quebec — up until the day before they are born. They also remind us that more than 60,000 people have been euthanized in Canada since 2016. They remind us that a world without abortion or euthanasia is possible, because it is based on love, care, and support.

In Quebec City, the march will once again take place in front of the National Assembly. Despite the sometimes aggressive counter-demonstrations that are allowed to flourish, we will never give up peacefully occupying public space.

Our presence in parishes and the Pregnant? Need help? service

Our visits to parishes continue, as does our support for pregnant women in difficulty through Pregnant? Need help?. This service is designed to attract vulnerable women who would otherwise never come into contact with us. Our mission here is clear: to save the unborn child and help the mother.

Sincerely,
For Life,

The Quebec Life Coalition team

Don't let them fool you

In Quebec right now, there is endless talk about Bill 2, a government bill aimed at reforming the Quebec healthcare system, particularly the way doctors are paid. Protests are multiplying and recriminations are rising. Except that this bill, which certainly has its flaws and surely some merits, is not the one that should really capture our attention. Because an even more fundamental bill has also been proposed recently: Bill 1, better known as the “Quebec Constitution.”

It is normal for a distinctive people such as the Quebecois to have a written constitution. The problem is that this constitution threatens the future of that very nation in several ways.

  1. This bill affirms the “freedom” to abort, thereby enshrining the killing of unborn children among Quebec's fundamental values! Not only it is a moral injustice of the highest order to put to death a human being innocent of any crime, but by including abortion as a fundamental “freedom,” Quebec is condoning its own demographic decline — a curious move for a nation built on families of 12, 15, 20 children, which today has a pathetic fertility rate of around 1.33 children per woman.
  2. This bill affirms the right to euthanasia, which, in a similar way to abortion, gives to the so-called doctor the power to kill an innocent human being as part of his “medical” duties. These practices distort medicine and transform it into a service of death for the benefit of a mercantile and utilitarian view of life, which sees value in life only if it provides enjoyment or profit for oneself or others.
  3. This bill asserts that Quebec, built on the foundation of Christ as evidenced by the multitude of saints who carried the torch of faith in New France, is now “secular.” This means that the state rejects the light of Christ and does not recognize his kingship, but places him on the same level as all other religions or ideologies — except atheism, which, under the guise of “neutrality,” takes control and threatens (through the government report known as “Pelchat-Rousseau”) to eliminate all public assistance to churches and religious schools, while indirectly threatening Christian families by alleging a so-called “right to secularism” for students.

To date, at the call of Quebec Life Coalition, nearly 600 communications (emails, calls) against Bill 1 have been sent to Quebec legislators through our message delivery service. If you haven't already done so, and if you are a resident of Quebec, you can take the opportunity to use our tool for communicating with legislators here:

In addition, the Quebec government has decided to conduct a study of Bill 1, with the possibility of citizen contributions. We therefore strongly encourage you to fill out the public consultation form:

The mobilization of people of good will is important, as evidenced by the absence in the federal budget of recommendations 429 and 430 of the Finance Committee, which advocated the withdrawal of charitable status from religious and pro-life organizations. The government backed down in the face of the outcry these proposals provoked.

The fight for life continues.

Sincerely,
The Quebec Life Coalition team
